There are lots of nice scenic views in this huge National Park. It offers beautiful breathtaking views of the mountains, cliffs, coastline and sea. There are some nice trails, some have broad walks so lots of places for exploring. There are plenty of wildlife. Great place to visit and relax.

Ali Mountain (Alishan)

Reviewed By DanielL11978

Beautiful scenery, enchanted forest and looks like a movie scene. Take your time to stroll and immersed in the nature & the stillness of the surroundings. Take the trains back in time for a enhanced experience and breath-taking views. Be prepared for a lot of stairs too. Visit Ailshan to make your Taiwan trip complete!

Sanxiantai

Reviewed By travelogue_voyage - Hong Kong, China

If you ask me to pick only one must visit in Taitung, no doubt it's San Xian Tai. I went on a super windy and rainy day, which made it hard to cross the Arch Bridge. Anyway, I crossed the bridge, but I'm unable to walk around the island due to bad weather. Still, it's worth the visit as the view is spectacular. Basically, Island, Sea, Sand, Beach, Arch bridge, these words summarize the place and make a beautiful picture. I hope to visit again with a different weather.

Dongyanshan National Forest Recreation Area

The name of “Dongyanshan” in Dongyanshan National Forest Recreation Area means a “big eye staring at the east” which is what it looks like when looking from Amouping at Shimen Reservoir at sunrise. The park features million-year old geological landscapes, plentiful bird species, insects and mammals, including the Formosan hare (Lepus sinensis ) and the Formosan white-headed flying squirrel (Petaurista alborufus lena), along with the boundless tree sea of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica). It is a relaxing experience to walk through the Japanese cedar forest in the fog then climb up to the top to enjoy the view of the region from Taoyuan to greater Taipei.

Gaomei Wetland

Reviewed By Megan_Lim - Singapore, Singapore

This is THE place to go to view beautiful sunset against a backdrop of windmills. The place is windy (obviously!) and packed with people all waiting to catch a glimpse of the beautiful sunset. There is a boardwalk over the wetlands (where tiny crabs can be seen scrambling..) and although there are loads of people, you can still see the sun slowly disappearing over the horizon ! Go early to grab a seat on the boardwalk, dangle your legs over the boardwalk, enjoy the wind and just wait ... it's worth a visit if you are in the vicinity.

Neidong National Forest Recreation Area

It takes 50 minutes by road from Xindian, making it the most convenient option in the greater Taipei area to visit a national forest recreation area. The weather here is warm and humid with Neidong river passing through the Area, making it a paradise for ferns. The Neidong waterfall is the star attraction of the Park and is located at the end point of the Waterfall viewing trail. The water has three layers with different views for visitors to enjoy, in addition to the fresh and fragrant negative ions emanating from the forest.
